Wow thank you Heather you are so kind. When you get your orbeez and you finished with them for the day drop them into a glass jar and put the lid on. This will keep them for weeks 😉 Also Tey getting one and brake it up into small pieces. I have taken some nice shots this way 👍👍👍👍
Brilliant Lee. You're like the human version of those 'books for dummies' - you explain everything so well without actually making us feel like dummies for not being able to work it all out. And you're much more engaging. Happy snapping Mate.
I learn something new every time I watch your channel Lee, thank you so much for producing these. You made me get out my barely used extension tubes and am now having having great fun using them.
Thank you once again Heather I always take much extension tubes out with me every where I go you never know when you need them I have even used them on my 50-500mm lens and taken great pictures
@@LeeHallphotography The robotic sound fx really bring it to life. I learn in a tutorial that the soundtrack is 60% of the impact of a film or advert. The macro is great don't get me wrong!
Hi Lee,it's such a joy to watch someone show you how easy it is to do macro-shots with such a few cheap items to make great shots...(keep the good work going Lee),merry xmas.
Hi Lee, it's good to hear a brummie accent. Not sure where you are from but I can't be to far from you in Walsall. I am loving your videos and have tried a few of your ideas. I am using extension tubes and a Canon 1200D. Had some success! Thanks again for the inspiration. Steve
Hi mate thank toy ever so much I really appreciate your support. I am from Walsall my self from Darlaston I have been living in Birmingham for around 10 years now so I guess my yam yam is disappearing 😭😭
You are most welcome I really have enjoyed going back to basics. It really does not mater what you use as long as you enjoy what you are doing and getting the shots you want
Wow thank you ever so much. It really has been good and it really has helped me out with my mental health along the way. But I could not of done it without people like your self and your kindness and support
Greetings Lee - I know I'm a little late with this comment, but I just wanted to say I really enjoy your videos. You keep it simple and easy to follow. I went ahead and ordered some orbiez much to the delight of my granddaughter (and much to the chagrin of my wife) and have been having a great time doing different shots with them. Thanks for the great tips.
Hi Mark your never to late my friend I always appreciate every comment I receive. I am so glad you are enjoying the videos the orbees are so much fun. I had to hide my ones from my grandchildren lol
@@OliverHerbold it's taken time my friend trust me a lot off pushing to get back at it with work commitments and hours changing. Quick question are you doing any zoom photography talks
@@LeeHallphotography yeah, I've followed your story ;) Sure I'm doing Zoom talks. Check it out on my website: www.herboldphotography.com You find them all on the Events page, Why are you asking mate?
Another great video and a great idea to use orbiez. I used extension tubes for about a year then got myself a macro lens just before Christmas, so pleased with it. Thanks for all your ideas 👍
Hello Lee, I think this might interest and amuse you, have you tried placing clear Orbeez on top of the little light turntable, gives amazing light diffraction, put cling film over to hold them in place, turn the turntable on it's side and you have a light projector for coloured backgrounds.
Great Video Lee as always. You inspire me, my friend, by making things so clear. I really really appreciate your DIYs...You are so creative! Thanks...You are my secret weapon! 👏👏👏
For those of you in the USA, instead of BluTack, you can use reuseable weather -sealing products such as Mortite Weatherstrip and Caulking Cord. I don't know if it's sold elasewhere. Good to keep some in a plastic bag in you camera gear bag.
Great video as per. I noticed the tubes used were auto focusing ones (you can see the contact points at the edges of the tubes). To cut corners a bit more, get the manual tubes instead, you're only going to put the lens on manual focus anyway.
I’ve got exactly the same extension tubes ☺️ A few days ago I bought the colored lamp! I didn’t had the change yet to play around with, but soon I will. Now I want orbeez 😅 Beautiful photo’s. Can you do a tutorial once on how you edit your photo’s? Have a nice day, greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Wow thank you I really appreciate your kindness. I don't like the way people make it look and sound hard when somethings are so simple that we all can do
Hi Lee, this is a great video mate, I am as you know just getting started & learning from you how to macro photo with my kit lens 18-55mm. Quick question mate, is there a limit to how many extension tubes to use, or what length i should use if just using one.
Brilliant Lee top man. I noticed you can also get them like diamonds: On the same amazon page. Thought the rotating light was redundant, after the LED colour light came on the scene you have resurrected it's usefulness.
Hello my friend you can use extension tubes with your lens. I have used a 150-600mm lens with extension tubes and got great shots. A lot of my first images are using extension tubes
Thanl you mate I am definitely pushing my self out of my comfort zone but I will get there. Thanks to you pushing and helping me out on the way with your editing skills.
No extension tubes will fit it great and make a massive difference I use macro tubes with my lens 90% of the time and it makes a great difference my friend
Lee, that was amazing. So simple, so good.
Wow thank you ever so much for your kind words. I really do try and keep everything as simple as I can
Another great video Lee. Never to long. Fantastic idea
Bless thank you ever so much it was around 25 minutes long at one point lol
Just watched this again, and ordered my Orbeez while the adverts were on! Can’t wait to ‘have a go’ Thank you yet again Lee.
Wow thank you Heather you are so kind.
When you get your orbeez and you finished with them for the day drop them into a glass jar and put the lid on. This will keep them for weeks 😉
Also Tey getting one and brake it up into small pieces. I have taken some nice shots this way 👍👍👍👍
Just marvellous 🤩
God bless you Ann I really do love your comments of support thank you with all my heart
Excellent inspirational video !
Thank you ever so much
Nice and simple, especially if you are on a budget. You are teaching me I can have fun with macro photography with simple things👏🏾👍🏾
Thank you glad you enjoyed it I love simple it's always the best way to go 👍👍👍👍👍
Brilliant Lee. You're like the human version of those 'books for dummies' - you explain everything so well without actually making us feel like dummies for not being able to work it all out. And you're much more engaging. Happy snapping Mate.
God bless you my friend trust me I am as thick as a plank of wood so this is the only way I can do it lol.
Glad you are enjoying them 😊
@@LeeHallphotography Well you're a great people person regardless of your IQ - us planks should stick together.
Definitely my friend 👍❤👍

Thank you ever so much my good friend
Great little macro sci-fi intro!
Thank you I thought it might look a little different lol
@@LeeHallphotography The robotic sound fx really bring it to life. I learn in a tutorial that the soundtrack is 60% of the impact of a film or advert. The macro is great don't get me wrong!
You are so right the sound definitely makes the biggest impact to any filming if the sound is bad it just don't work no mater how good the filming is.
Fantastic lee. Thank you.
Well done mate. Great stuff
Another great inspirational video, thank you

Thank you ever so much my kind friend thank you for your kindness and support
Thank you very much Lee, well explained, I personally use an extantiontube and my 50mm 1.8 for all my macro shoots and it works brilliant.
You are most welcome I really have enjoyed going back to basics. It really does not mater what you use as long as you enjoy what you are doing and getting the shots you want
Lee I love the honesty and I’m on holiday and weather isn’t great, so thought I’d do some experimenting! Love it, Thanks!

I will definitely have to try that out my friend I never thought about that 🤔 thank you 📸👍📸👍📸👍📸👍

You make it look so simple, thank you so much for all your videos. Take care :-)
Thank you .y good friend very much appreciated 📸👍
ive been looking for the light but cant find one any pointers please KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK👍
Great video as per. I noticed the tubes used were auto focusing ones (you can see the contact points at the edges of the tubes). To cut corners a bit more, get the manual tubes instead, you're only going to put the lens on manual focus anyway.
Very tue good point my friend I also use them for my video where I need them to auto focus on small things like bugs and spiders.
I’ve got exactly the same extension tubes ☺️ A few days ago I bought the colored lamp! I didn’t had the change yet to play around with, but soon I will. Now I want orbeez 😅 Beautiful photo’s. Can you do a tutorial once on how you edit your photo’s? Have a nice day, greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
Thank you my friend I have been working on a editing tutorial but it is not working at the moment. I will do one I promise
Another brilliant idea. Where do you get them from ? but keep them coming please. Great !
Thanl you ever so much. I just keep having brain storms lol.
Love your content Lee, easy to understand and delivered in a friendly and passionate way👍🙂
Wow thank you I really appreciate your kindness.

yes my friend I did see them ones as well i will have to invest in some to see how they work. glad you enjoyed it
May I use a 85mm 1.8 lens + Extension tubes for successful Macro Photography?
Hello my friend you can use extension tubes with your lens. I have used a 150-600mm lens with extension tubes and got great shots. A lot of my first images are using extension tubes
Awesome mate :)
Thanl you mate I am definitely pushing my self out of my comfort zone but I will get there. Thanks to you pushing and helping me out on the way with your editing skills.
I have a 105mm macro and would like to get a tad closer at times. Will extension tubes work with this lens or will it be too much perhaps ?
No extension tubes will fit it great and make a massive difference I use macro tubes with my lens 90% of the time and it makes a great difference my friend
@@LeeHallphotography Thank you Lee. I have learnt so much from you work lately and i have put many of your techniques in to practice.
As long as you are happy I a. Happy its nice to get comments like yours it makes it all worth while
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Lee I love what you did here. How did you get the oddly shaped ball to form? The green one that looks like a brain. Or was that just an aberration?
It was when I started to soke them. They started going theas shapes my friend
@@LeeHallphotography Thanks Lee
@@alstroemeria1031 not a problem
I received my color changing bulb the other day. Does your brain stay in macro mode, lol. Love this idea. Can a person buy a sweatshirt like you wear?
Lol I wish my brain would switch off sometimes lol.
My tops and t shirts will be going on sale very soon my friend I am just working on a website 👍
nice :)
Thank you 📸👍🙏
Hey lee, great, you managed to say Nikon not N NN N N Nikon, lol
Hello buddy nothing rong with NNNNNN NOKKON
SORRY MENT NIKKKKON LOL.
Have you tried Reverse lens macro
I have my friend but I found them a little to hard for water drop photography as you have to get very close
